Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, the fruit of the womb is a reward -Psalm 127:3

The Bible is clear in teaching us that our children are a gift from God. As far back as Genesis 4:1 we find Eve declaring that her son Cain had been given to her by God. The children God gives to us are his good gifts to us, entrusted as a stewardship from Him.

For decades now, Mississippi's oppressive vaccine law has been an obstacle between parents who seek and rely on discernment from the Holy Spirt concerning how they vaccinate their children and their inability to vaccinate as they are led.

Help us champion religious vaccine rights legislation that would give parents in Mississippi the fundamental rights they must have in order to be good stewards of the children God has entrusted to them.

Which vaccines contain human protein and DNA?

The information in this table is drawn from vaccine package inserts downloaded from the FDA website. The Vaccine Ingredients Calculator, following the lead of the package inserts, treats each source of human protein and DNA as a distinct ingredient.

A CBS News Investigates article quotes a former senior scientist at a pharmaceutical firm who claims that human tissue is currently used in 23 vaccines; however, we adhere strictly to the vaccine package inserts from the FDA as our ingredient data source and cannot confirm nor deny this claim.

That is not all. More babies continue to be sacrificed.We continue to kill some babies to theoretically keep other babies from contracting a treatable and/or non-deadly disease.

"Due to dwindling capacity for existing aborted fetal cell lines to self-replicate, scientists in China have developed a new aborted fetal cell line, WALVAX 2 that will be used for viral vaccine production. The existing cell lines, MRC-5 and WI-38 are currently used in MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis-A, Shingles, some rabies and some polio vaccines." -Children of God for Life

Where did the human protein and DNA come from?

There are three main sources of human protein in vaccines: (1) fetal cell lines, (2) human albumin derived from human blood and (3) human albumin genetically engineered from yeast.

The human DNA in vaccines comes from the MRC-5 fetal cell line (see below).

Human Protein from Fetal Cell Lines

The MRC-5 cell line was developed in September 1966 from lung tissue taken from a 14 week fetus aborted for psychiatric reasons from a 27 year old physically healthy woman.

The WI-38 human diploid cell line was derived by L. Hayflick from normal embryonic (3-month gestation) lung tissue of a female.

The rubella vaccine currently used in the United States and in most countries was developed after an American researcher at the Wistar Institute cultured rubella virus from a fetus aborted because the mother was infected with rubella. This vaccine is called RA 27/3 because the rubella virus was isolated from the 27th aborted fetus sent to the Wistar Institute in the 1964 rubella outbreak.

This article, while incomplete regarding the sources of human protein/DNA and the vaccine in which they are found, attempts to explain why some vaccines are grown in cell cultures that were originally obtained from human fetuses. http://www.immunizationinfo.org/issues/vaccine-components/human-fetal-links-some-vaccines

Genetically Engineered Human Albumin

Currently (as of April 2011), only the MMR vaccine contains genetically engineered human protein, which is produced under the brand name Recombumin and referred to as "recombinant human albumin" in the package insert. http://www.immunizationinfo.org/issues/vaccine-components/human-fetal-links-some-vaccines

Human albumin derived from human blood

The package inserts do not contain any information about where the human blood is sourced from.

This table includes not only vaccine ingredients (e.g., adjuvants and preservatives), but also substances used during the manufacturing process, including vaccine- production media, that are removed from the final product and present only in trace quantities. In addition to the substances listed, most vaccines contain Sodium Chloride (table salt).

All reasonable efforts have been made to ensure the accuracy of this information, but manufacturers may change product contents before that information is reflected here. If in doubt, check the manufacturer’s package insert.

We are so excited for the opportunities before us over the next two weeks!

As you may know, MPVR is having Del Bigtree flown in from California to meet with our legislators!

Del will be at the capitol on Tuesday, Jan 10th and Wednesday, Jan 11th. Del is the 2x Emmy Award winning medical investigative journalist and producer of the daytime talk show, The Doctors. More importantly, he is the producer of the the documentary film, Vaxxed: From Cover Up to Catastrophe.

If you would like to set up an appointment between Del and your legislator, please let me know ASAP. He is phenomenally gifted at communicating with lawmakers and we are fortunate to have him.

PLEASE make the most of this opportunity. He will be available both Tuesday and Wednesday mornings from 9 until 11, both afternoons for about an hour after 1:00, and at 4:00 on Wednesday. Anyone in the Jackson area who can make it both days, try to utilize Tuesday morning. Please send me a private FB message, call, or shoot me a text.

Our tees serve as great conversation starters and educate the mom behind you in the grocery store checkout line! We would LOVE to see you all wearing your Official MPVR Tees when we have our 2017 MPVR Day at the Capitol with Vaxxed producer Del Bigtree! This is going to be an exciting eventful year. Please don't wait to order if you want yours in time for Mississippi's 2017 Legislative Session which starts just after the holidays!

Mississippi Parents for Vaccine Rights (MPVR.org) champions state and federal laws that advocate the basic human right of parents to be the final authority in their children’s healthcare, including vaccinations. We are focused on defending the freedom of informed voluntary consent.

This campaign will run until Dec. 23 through Teespring and acts as a fundraiser for MPVR.

Mississippi Parents for Vaccine Rights has been hard at work tirelessly to get Vaxxed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe to theaters across the state. We are both thankful and thrilled to announce that Vaxxed is coming to a theater near you in August. View the Official Vaxxed trailer:

Vaxxed: From Cover Up to Catastrophe has played to packed theaters across Mississippi.

Madison, MS | Malco Grandview Theatre

• Sold Out | MOVED TO A LARGER SCREEN: Tuesday, August 16 at 7:30pm SOLD OUT!

(We are working to bring Vaxxed to a theater in the Gulf Coast Region.)

The fraudulent CDC science that Vaxxed brings to light only confirms our state's most rigid, oppressive vaccine law in the nation MUST be changed. We now know it is scientific fact that the MMR vaccine is causing autism in some children when it is given according to the CDC and Mississippi mandated schedule. This is unacceptable moving forward and must stop.

If you are able, please buy an extra ticket or two and invite someone who NEEDS to see this film. It is imperative that we get those who are not yet advocates of health freedom and vaccine truth into the theaters. Invite friends, family members, and church leaders. Urge your pediatrician/nurse/doctor and certainly your lawmakers and their spouses.

Ultimately this film, turned movement, is a tool to share long-hidden truth; every Mississippian needs and deserves to see it.

Dear Christian Friend, Doctor and Politician who is gossiping and slandering this hero,

Please pay attention.

Dr. Andy Wakefield has not been discredited. He simply looked at the connection between gut health in 12 of his child patients and the MMR vaccine and said there may be a connection that needs to be looked at.

British court has ruled that Dr. Wakefield's study was NOT fraudulent. The finding of serious professional misconduct and the sanction of erasure were both quashed. His partner, Dr. John Walker-Smith has been exonerated. Dr. Walker-Smith's insurance paid for the appeal where Dr. Wakefield's did not. Dr. Wakefield has never wavered in all these years despite being vilified by those who stood to lose billions had his findings been further explored. Dr. Andrew Wakefield has dedicated his life to advocating for truth and the safety of our children, AND many scientists and doctors across the world have reproduced his findings.

Dr. Andrew Wakefield did not say a vaccine caused autism. What he did was listen to the parents, examine the children, and submit a paper with his findings that:

"We identified associated gastrointestinal disease and developmental regression in a group of previously normal children, which was generally associated in time with possible environmental triggers."

I share because I believe we all deserve to read the body of work and make up our own minds based on that body of work and not what media and even doctors and scientists, who are human and fallible, tell us is true. Certainly, we have failed in this regard. We've stopped being judicious. We have all questioned too little and trusted too much.

"For there is nothing hidden that will not become visible, and nothing secret that will not be known and come to light." -Luke 8:17

Shame on those who've slandered Dr. Wakefield's good name. If you have not read his paper but are simply regurgitating propaganda, that is not okay. Just because someone is far away and well known does not make it any less sinful to spread false rumors.

We all make mistakes though, so moving forward help us fix this, please! We have all been deceived. Parents and medical professionals alike have been lied to by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Do the work Friend, Doctor, Politician. Seek out the truth! Be wise and discerning enough to recognize when you have been deceived. LISTEN TO THE PARENTS who are telling you what they are seeing right before their very eyes. Then, once you see and hear the truth that vaccines are causing grievous harm to some children, speak out for heaven's sake. Are we not called to speak out on behalf of the voiceless, the children who in this case have been harmed?

Dr. Wakefield is driven to save our children from certain harm. He is a proponent of truth. That's what I know to be true. He is a humble man of moral courage and I admire him and am grateful for his dedication and sacrifice. He has devoted his life to learning and sharing the truth with all of us. That is what the film, VaxXed: From Cover-Up to Catastrophe does: it shines a light on the truth. Families have been devastated by fraudulent CDC science. ENOUGH. VaxXed exposes the corruption. Mississippians must see this film.

-lm

Since the release of the 1998 paper in The Lancet, which suggested the possibility of a link between a novel form of bowel disease, autism, and the MMR vaccine, one of the report's co-authors, Dr. Andrew Wakefield has been the subject of great controversy and defamation. Here, Wakefield addresses the allegations of fraud, conflict of interest, and medical misconduct that have been leveled against him.

GOP presidential candidate, Dr. Ben Carson, has served as Chairman of the Board of Vaccinogen, Inc. The initial comment deleted from Carson's Facebook page by Mississippi Parents for Vaccine Rights Co-Director, Lindey Magee, was in response to a woman who stated: "There are no aborted fetus cells in vaccines!"

"_____ you are WRONG! The ingredients, including fetal cell lines are right there on the CDC dot gov site in the ingredients! It is reckless for you to state something so matter-of-factly when you obviously don't have a clue what you are talking about.

For the sake of my sanity, I highly recommend that you do your own research and quit relying on what main stream media reports in between the 4 pharmaceutical commercials during each commercial break.

Let me make it easy for you.

• The MRC-5 cell line was developed in September 1966 from lung tissue taken from a 14 week fetus aborted for psychiatric reasons from a 27 year old physically healthy woman.

• The WI-38 human diploid cell line was derived by L. Hayflick from normal embryonic (3-month gestation) lung tissue of a female.

• The rubella vaccine currently used in the United States and in most countries was developed after an American researcher at the Wistar Institute cultured rubella virus from a fetus harvested from the elective abortion of a mother infected with rubella. This vaccine is called RA 27/3 because the rubella virus was isolated from the 27th aborted fetus sent to the Wistar Institute in the 1964 rubella outbreak.

To see the actual ingredients and substances used during the manufacturing process check out this CDC link.

You can learn more about which vaccines contain human protein and DNA here.

Lindey reposted the above reply upon seeing it had been deleted. She also posted the following comment, using Dr. Carson's own quotes regarding mandatory vaccination to hold him accountable for what she saw as placating.

(click on image for full size pop-up:)

When she was deleted so were all her comments and replies. (click on image for full size pop-up:)

Vaughn Blaylock sums this up well:

"Dr. Ben Carson supports mandatory vaccines. That is, to say, that he supports the right of government to force you to take your meds, regardless of your petty objections. This stems from an obvious belief that your government owns at least part of you, and that it certainly owns your children. He has said repeatedly that he believes that 'No parent has the right to refuse a vaccination for their child.'

When a crew of us got together and began to debate him on the subject in a respectful tone, our allies from all over the country descended upon Carson's Facebook page in support. Dr. Carson's response to all of this was to backpedal, and claim that he does support an exemption for parents, when, according to his own statements, he clearly does not.

Dr. Ben Carson served on the board of Vaccinogen. Although the existence of the 'Vaccine Court' - the Office of the Special Masters of the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, having been established in 1986 by the National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act- is no secret, Dr. Carson refuses to acknowledge the thousands upon thousands of children and adults who have been seriously harmed or even killed by vaccines."

For those of us who find ourselves a #oneissuevoter for #HealthFreedom, Carson doesn't make the cut.

Are you concerned about children who are under-vaccinated according to the CDC schedule attending school with children who are fully vaccinated? If so, please consider this.

Below is the list of childhood vaccines given in 1983, before the government decided to protect drug companies and doctors from liability for death or injury due to vaccines. See National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act . Both drug companies and health care providers involved in the vaccination of a child cannot be held financially accountable in a civil court of law for death or injury due to vaccination even if there is a product defect or negligence involved.

The list in the second column is the CDC schedule of vaccines children receive in 2015, and that continues to expand with no end in sight. Click the image to view full sized:

Think about it. For almost four decades vaccine manufacturers have enjoyed both government mandates that guarantee the uptake of their products, as well as a cocoon of protection from liability unique only to the vaccine industry.

How many of these vaccines have most adults had?

How many adults are adequately boostered every two years? Five years? Ten years?

When was your last pertussis booster or your child's teacher's last pertussis booster?

What about the lady at the checkout in Walmart?

In fact, the pertussis vaccine is effective for only 2 years. Chicken Pox and others also need frequent boosters in order to provide any possibility of protection.

If we as adults want to require others to risk hyper-vaccinating their vulnerable infants and children, then is it not only fair that we roll up our sleeves to the same as well? Is it morally responsible to expect our most vulnerable little ones to bear the load of protecting the "greater good"?

As for the model of herd immunity, clearly the majority of the population is walking around largely un-vaccinated for most everything we are mandating children be vaccinated for.

Herd immunity is pure marketing by corrupt big pharmaceutical companies to create fear and urgency among parents to require ALL children to be vaccinated for everything on the schedule, regardless of how large the schedule becomes.

If the adult population isn't being boostered every two, five, or ten years for most if not all these diseases, then the herd immunity model sinks like the Titanic.

It is a false notion to believe that only vaccinating little ones creates herd immunity. Ask any cattle farmer.

MPVR is committed to the truth. It seems the mainstream media, medical establishment, and government are persistently presenting stories that sell vaccines, while most parents don't hear the stories that warn us to be careful when vaccinating our children.

I found out that I was pregnant with my first child in July 2008. I had never thought about vaccines before that and knew nothing at all about them. A family friend called me one day to share a few basic things about vaccines, sharing her sons reaction to his MMR vaccine and the life threatening condition it put him in. She also sent me several credible links, and a book, Dr. Cave’s What your Doctor didn’t tell you about Childhood Vaccinations. It was all very overwhelming to me. I understood that vaccination carried risk, but I didn't realize to what extent. I read the book, but much of it was just over my head. I did understand the current vaccine schedule and was very interested in using the delayed schedule that she provided for my new baby boy. I prayed about this a lot and determined it would be best and safest for my child.

The Pediatrician Experience in Mississippi

I had Noah on April 1, 2009. He was absolutely perfect in every way! I had never felt a love like this! The weeks flew by, and soon it was time for his 2 month check up. I had been reading over the book again after he was born to help prepare myself for his appointment. The day of his appointment I had the book in hand with a plan. Noah was checked out by the doctor and was perfectly healthy. I shared with my son’s doctor that I had read Dr. Cave’s book and done a good bit of research and would like to follow the delayed vaccine schedule. After explaining my plan to his doctor I sure wasn't prepared for what happened next. "I am familiar with Dr. Cave, and I do not support anything she studies or writes in any way." he responded. I was then fed scare tactics of what would happen to my precious baby if i didn't not follow the CDC's recommended schedule, and how I would be putting my child in great danger. I don't remember every specific thing said that day, but I do remember that my heart was beating out of my chest and I was very upset. Noah’s pediatrician used fear mongering scare tactics and bullied me to the point of tears that day. I felt like I had no choice, and signed the paper for my baby boy to receive all his 2 month vaccinations that day...8 doses of vaccines. I left in tears with a very heavy heart and sick feeling deep down in my gut.

Vaccine Reactions in Hindsight

Within a few days of his 2 month vaccines I noticed a red rash appearing in the creases of Noah's arms and legs. After about 2 weeks of it getting worse, Noah was diagnosed with Eczema. He explained it was common and that he would prescribe topical steroid cream for it. And that was that.

After my experience at his 2 month appointment, I was scared to even question vaccines. I didn't want to be that crazy mom that freaked out about everything. I pushed vaccines in the back of my head and tried not think about them. Noah started a home daycare at 4 months old. After his 4 month visit i noticed that his eczema rash became worse. Here is a picture of Noah a few days after his 4 month vaccines. His eczema had spread all over his body by this time.

(4 month picture here)

After his 6 month vaccinations and first and only flu shot, things went south quickly. Noah’s eczema became out of control. His body was completely inflamed and he had numerous secondary infections as a result of this. He was put on zyrtec daily to help with the allergies and also took benadryll almost every day because he couldn't quit itching himself to the point of bleeding. I would have to put him in footed pjs at night and use medical tape to take his sleeves to his wrist so that he didn't claw his arms until they bled. It was BAD. After months of persistence-begging Noah’s pediatrician, I finally got a referral to see an allergist. She was in total shock at the condition of my child. She complained that he should have been sent to her MONTHS sooner. We were given a strict routine to care aggressively for his skin and learned that Noah was deathly allergic to peanuts as well as eggs. I realize now why his eczema spiraled out of control after receiving the flu vaccine (contains egg) at 6 months old.Here is Noah not long after his 6 month vaccinations.

From 6-12 months noah stayed sick. He had several ear infections, the stomach virus, strep throat, and secondary infections from his eczema. Noah's 1 year well visit was set for the first week of April. This appointment was one that I really dreaded. I questioned the doctor on the MMR vaccine and its safety. I was assured that it was completely safe. I was also given a sheet showing the possible side effects of the shots he received that day which included fever, swelling at the injection site, and irritability. I left the 12 month appointment in tears carrying my freshly vaccinated, eczema covered screaming baby. I strapped him in his carseat, got in the car and completely lost it. I cried and cried. What had i just let them do to my baby? Of all the vaccine research I had done, i was sick at the thought of these 12 month vaccines including the MMR vaccine. I cried to the point of making myself sick right there in the parking lot. I was completely overcome with panic and terror. I prayed for peace and for a calm spirit. I felt like the absolute worst mother in the world for going against this strong feeling I had deep down in my gut. I knew deep in my heart that this wasn't right, but felt like i had no other option but to vaccinate him exactly like all the other babies his age were.

Here is a picture of Noah after not long after 12 month vaccines.

Once fall came around, it was time again for his vaccines. I had grown numb over it all since the last traumatic experience. I barely spoke a word about anything at his appointment. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I drove home from his appointment. There was nothing I could do, no one to turn to. Anyone who I had ever discussed this with assured me that all kids get vaccinated and that it was just what you do. I felt so alone, but knew it would be a while before I had to deal with all of this again which did help me fell better about it all.

Here is a picture of Noah at his 15 month well visit covered in eczema from head to toe with swollen eyes.

It Gets Worse | Life Threatening ITP Vaccine Reaction

A few weeks later, after picking Noah up from daycare, I noticed a very strange bruise on Noah's arm. It was tiny little bruises in the shape of teeth marks. I was very alarmed by it, and called his teacher who assured me there hadn’t been any incidents outside the norm that day. I was so confused at how a child bit my child so hard to leave bruises (but not break the skin) and no one knew it happened!

Here is a picture of Noah's arm that day.

Two days later, I picked noah up from daycare and headed to church. When i was getting him out of his carseat i noticed a very dark and large bruise on his shin. It had a knot under it and was very strange looking.

The next day, I was headed to pick Noah up from school and my phone rang. It was his teacher calling. She was calling to tell me that she noticed several more bruises on noah when changing his clothes that afternoon.

When I arrived, I couldn't believe my eyes. He had several bruises all over his body. I took him straight to the walk in clinic. They got us right back and as soon as the doctor walked in he noticed all the bruising. He immediately ordered a CBC (complete blood count) that revealed Noah had ITP and severely low platelets. I was instructed to go straight to the ER where they would be waiting for us. Noah's platelet count was at 5,000. A normal platelet count is 150,000-250,000. They were very confused at such low of a count and kept mentioning that that couldn't be right that they'd never seen a platelet count so low.

Noah was admitted for treatment. His doctor explained that ITP is very treatable and usually acute which means it resolves itself quickly with treatment. Noah started his first 12 hour treatment at midnight that night. After the 12 hour treatment his platelet count rose to only 16,000. After another treatment it didn't rise much more at all. His doctor was very concerned to why he wasn't responding to the treatments so we were then transferred to Blair E. Batson Children's Hospital in Jackson so that Noah could be treated by Pediatric Doctors who Specialized in Hematology and blood disorders.

Noah during his first hospital stay.

Over the next month, We were in and out of the hospital for days at a time. No treatment that they gave noah would help his platelet count hold at a normal and safe level. Because Noah was a toddler, they were worried about him hitting his head. He was fitted for a Pediatric helmet that he was to wear when his platelet counts dropped below 30,000. His risk for internal bleeding grew higher the lower that his platelets got.

In December after his diagnosis I had to quit my Job. Noah was not well enough to be in school. This was a major financial burden to our family. We spent the next 2.5 years watching Noah's platelets fluctuate between 10,000 and 40-50,000 at the highest. We took him to his specialist every week for a few months, and then every 2 weeks, then every month after a few years.

Research & Discovering the Truth

During this time, I learned that ITP is caused by a live virus or illness. It is caused when the immune system is attacked by "a virus" of some sort, and builds up antibodies to kill the virus off. When the virus is gone, in a hypersensitive immune system, the antibodies continue being built up to kill the virus, but they attack the platelets instead. Platelets cause the blood to clot. Low platelets bring many dangers.

I also continued my research on vaccines. One day, I came across a website, www.nvic.org. I was looking through the site and I was reading about each disease and its risks as well as about each vaccine and its risks. When I got to the MMR vaccine package insert and began to read, my heart hit the floor like a ton of bricks. Right there in the package insert of the MMR, and flu vaccine was Immune thrombocytopenic purupra (ITP). I could not believe my eyes. I knew that the MMR was 3 live viruses in one vaccine. My son was covered head to toe in eczema the day he was vaccinated at 12 months and at 15 months old.

By this time, I knew that eczema indicated that the immune system was compromised. Each event in our story was a puzzle piece to the underlying cause of the ITP. I couldn't believe that I had figured out what had caused Noah's ITP even though no doctor we had ever seen had mentioned vaccines playing a role. Luckily the next week we had a doctors appointment with Noah's specialist. The first question I asked her was if she thought there could be any relation in the vaccines and Noah's ITP. Her words exactly, "Oh, Absolutely." I also asked if it was safe for Noah to be vaccinated again and she stated that he didn't need to receive any live virus vaccines since they could cause his platelets to drop.

To Make Matters Worse

Even back then, I wasn’t aware of Mississippi’s archaic vaccine law. I had made the decision that Noah wouldn't receive any more vaccines. I knew without a shadow of doubt that Noah's ITP was caused by his vaccinations.

Over those two years of battling Noah's ITP I was made aware of Mississippi vaccine law. I realized that Noah had to have a medical exemption written by a doctor and approved by the MSDH in order to attend school. I also learned that this was a very hard thing to obtain.

I became aware of the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program; a government program set up in 1986 once the law was passed that protected Vaccine manufacturers and doctors from lawsuits when a person is injured or killed as a result of vaccines. Vaccine manufacturers nor doctors may be held accountable. The NVIC has paid out over 3 BILLION dollars in compensation for vaccine injuries and deaths in the U.S.

My eyes were truly opened. All those feelings I had from the very beginning concerning vaccinating Noah weren't just feelings. It was my God given Motherly Instinct. It was the Holy Spirit speaking to me and giving me these feelings for a reason.

A mom friend I met through Mississippi Parents for Vaccine Rights put me in contact with the attorney she used to file a claim against the National Vaccine Injury Compensation Program. Over the last year, our vaccine attorney and I have picked apart Noah's medical records. We dissected them and found so much evidence of Noah being vaccine injured from the first set of shots he received at 2 months. I did not realize when Noah was a baby, that the eczema was being caused by his vaccinations. It was his body screaming STOP! ...Stop injecting my body with toxic chemicals. Stop compromising my immune system! Our case lasted over a year. It was reviewed by doctors who are hired by the government to determine whether or not vaccines were the cause of the said injury in each case. Remember, 3 billion dollars has been awarded to families of vaccine injured individuals since 1986 when the NVICP was created. $3 BILLION. Vaccines can and do cause injury and death.

In August of 2014 Noah's case was won in vaccine court. Noah was awarded compensation for his vaccine injury. I am not sharing this to boast. I can promise that there is no monetary amount that could begin to make our family's experience okay. Nothing at all could make it ok that my son received damaging vaccinations mandated by the government who benefit greatly from the financial aspect of vaccines.

The fact that this compensation came in the form of US treasury government checks is absolutely sickening. Throughout our ordeal, I have felt God like no other time. His comfort, His peace, His grace, His healing power has been evident. I have also felt as though I am called to use Noah's story for His glory.

Why I Share, Please Hear This Well

It is my desire that Noah's story help other parents become aware of the real risks associated with a one-size-fits-all vaccine program. Mississippi’s vaccine law is oppressive. While Noah has a hard-fought-for medical exemption, his little sister has no hope for a vaccine waiver in this state. I could easily move to one of 48 other states and have the fundamental right to protect her from the vaccines that nearly took my son’s life. In Mississippi, I am expected, to fully vaccinate her! I have NO OPTIONS here. Children in Mississippi must first be injured for state bureaucrats to consider a doctor’s request for exemption. That is BARBARIC.

Mississippi lawmakers have shown year after year as they reject common sense, fundamental right legislation that they do not trust the parents in this state to make the best decision for their children- instead allowing government bureaucrats to determine what is best for our children. These bureaucrats insist ALL children be molded into a one-size-fits-all, NEVER-tested-as-administered vaccine schedule that looks like 49 doses before kindergarten.

Please research vaccines. Research the diseases we vaccinate against and the risks associated with those disease. Research the vaccines and their risk. Research VAERS and how many people have reacted to vaccines and how. Know the truth, and most importantly, listen to your Momma gut. LISTEN to it.

Noah is now in remission from his Chronic ITP. He has had a safe platelet count for the past year and has been healthy. We rejoice over his healing and pray that his ITP is gone forever.

January 25, 2015

Breaking in 2014: The truth about a CDC researcher blowing the whistle regarding CDC data, Merck’s MMR vaccine and the studies conducted that revealed that black baby boys may be at 340% greater risk for developing autism when getting the MMR vaccine before age 3. The MMR vaccine is currently mandated to be given at 12 months and again at 4 year old.

The third whistleblower -- a senior CDC scientist named William Thompson -- only indirectly blew the whistle on Merck. He more blew it on himself and colleagues at the CDC who participated in a 2004 study involving the MMR vaccine. Here, the allegations involve a cover-up of data pointing to high rates of autism in African-American boys after they were vaccinated with MMR. In what could be high-profile House hearings before Congressman Posey's Science Committee -- hearings made all the more explosive given the introduction of race into the mix -- Merck could find itself under unprecedented scrutiny. The CDC still stands by its study although Frank DeStefano, the CDC's Director of Immunization Safety and a co-author in the CDC study, also stated that he plans to review his notes with an eye to reanalyzing the data.

From an e-mail Dr. Thompson allegedly wrote on October 18, 2002 to Melinda Wharton. "I am writing you once more regarding the recent Department of Justice (DOJ) request for a broad range of documents associated with MMR, thimerosal, and autism. I first spoke with you on September 3rd of 2002 regarding the sensitive results we have been struggling with in the MADDSP MMR/Autism study."

Further on in the e-mail Thompson wrote, "I don't think anyone has broken the law but I was extremely uncomfortable when Dr. Coleen Boyle, a coauthor on our paper, was required to testify before Congressman Dan Burton's committee in April of 2002 regarding MMR and autism. My level of concern has also caused me to seriously consider removing myself as an author on the draft manuscript."

On February 2, 2004, Thompson wrote a letter to Dr. Julie Gerberding, head of the Centers for Disease Control. It began, "We've not met yet to discuss these matters, but I'm sure you're aware of the Institute of Medicine Meeting regarding vaccines and autism that will take place on February 9th. I will be presenting the summary of our results from the Metropolitan Atlanta Autism Case-Control Study and I will have to present several problematical results relating to statistical associations between the receipt of MMR vaccine and autism."

The CDC’s DeStefano acknowledges that he and his study co-authors changed their study analysis plan midstream, which resulted in reducing the statistical vaccine-autism link among black boys. But he says they did so for good scientific reason.

“[Vaccine] exposure around [three years of age] is just not biologically plausible to have a causal association with autism,” DeStefano says. “I mean autism would’ve already started by then…it probably starts in the womb. So I think from a biological argument, it’s implausible this was a causal association.”

The issue is highly-charged for several reasons: public health officials fear that the public will panic and stop vaccinating if they believe there are links between vaccines and autism. That could lead to resurgence in serious infectious diseases.

Also, vaccination is a multi-billion dollar global industry that employs law firms and public relations agents to engage in a variety of high-powered PR efforts. These efforts include: lobbying members of Congress to prevent hearings exploring vaccine safety, holding private meetings with news executives to discourage reporting on vaccines and autism, and financing nonprofits which take favorable positions on vaccine safety issues. Because pharmaceutical companies that produce vaccines spend millions of dollars each year buying advertising on television, print and online, critics argue they may be given undue influence over content of the reporting media.

Pharmaceutical interests and their surrogates routinely falsely portray scientists and journalists who investigate vaccine safety as “anti-vaccine.” In his statement, Thompson emphasizes his safety concerns do not reflect an “anti-vaccine” mentality.

Ms. Attkisson’s reported in a blog on her website August 29: This week the CDC in response to a query stated that it is not currently investigating the relation between vaccines and autism spectrum disorders (ASD). “Further, CDC does not have any planned research addressing vaccines and autism,” said a CDC spokesman.

“CDC believes that this topic has been thoroughly studied and no causal links have been found. Current CDC ASD related research focuses on determining how many people have ASD and understanding risk factors and causes for ASD.”–CDC spokesman

Ten years ago (February 2, 2004), Dr. Thompson expressed concerns about the study’s findings in an urgent letter to CDC Director Dr. Julie Gerberding; he broke protocol to contact her directly, instead of going through his immediate supervisor. Of the upcoming Institute of Medicine (IOM) 2004 meeting on immunizations and autism, he wrote “I will have to present several problematic results relating to statistical associations between the receipt of the MMR vaccine and autism.” He received no reply from Dr. Gerberding and he was removed from the IOM speaker schedule days before the meeting. The 2004 IOM report, which did not include his findings, was cited by the Omnibus Autism decision that denied 5,000 families compensation for vaccine injury claims, and the report continues to be widely cited for exonerating vaccines’ role in causing autism.

The CDC's final agreed-upon protocol came out for this particular study on September 5, 2001, and in that particular protocol they said they would consider race among the entire population. They called race a co-variant, and that’s just a term that’s used in statistics for a secondary variable, but they said that race would be used within the entire population.

In October MS Parents for Vaccine Rights was given the opportunity to appear on MS Public Broadcasting's Southern Remedy TV Show.

We were admittedly hesitant to do an interview with a state sponsored TV show since we are fighting to change the nature of a state program, but decided that we would do our best and hope that whatever coverage we got would give our MPVR members a voice if nothing else. So we held our nose and went for it!

Overall, we are pleased that Southern Remedy was kind to us and that our philosophy was not twisted and made to look like something it isn't. We do feel that our side of the debate was quite abbreviated, even eliminating some of our most important and compelling points, such as the impressive number of vaccine doses our children are getting and the fact that the MS State Department of Health is refusing medical waivers requested by pediatricians. This, we believe is important for the public to know, as it usually results in mouths hanging open.

We were thrilled to have shared airtime with our supporting friend Barbara Loe Fisher from The National Vaccine Information Center. Barbara was able to deliver a clear and compelling common sense message that bolstered our story. Thank you to all of our friends at NVIC!

Also, presentation of each side was obviously unbalanced. The pro-vaccine side was given a grossly disproportionate amount of time than our pro-parental rights side. A woman who claimed to have been injured by polio as a child was interviewed, but there were no vaccine injured children's stories presented.

At the end of the day we have no regrets and are very thankful to MPB for the opportunity!
